9* AdaptationInducedPlotHole: In ''Track Zero'', Yuri and Hinata are in the headmaster's office with Chaa when Angel arrives, so they witness her killing him. Later, Yuri remarks on her inhuman speed. In ''Heaven's Door'', Angel arrives there before them, so they only see her after the act is done, but Yuri still remarks on her speed.
10* BloodierAndGorier: ''Heaven's Door'' is bloodier compared to the anime. This extends both to serious moments and to slapstick.
11* BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine: Iwasawa and Hisako. Iwasawa will typically say something ridiculous, while Hisako reacts with incredulity.
12* EmotionSuppression: Yusa voluntarily has her past trauma locked away, turning her from AxCrazy to an EmotionlessGirl.
13* EyeScream:
14** PlayedForLaughs. Out of irritation, Yuri stabs chopsticks into Hinata's eyes.
15** For a more serious example, [[spoiler: Shiina stabs one of Hinata's eyes out during their fight.]]
16* ForgottenFramingDevice: The manga starts out with the framing of Hinata explaining to Otonashi how he met Yuri and how the SSS got founded. However, later the point-of-view shifts to Iwasawa and Hisako for a few chapters, and after the manga progresses past the end of ''Track Zero'', the primary point-of-view starts shifting to Yuri.
17* NotWhatItLooksLike: Hisako trips and falls on Iwasawa while naked. Angel walks in on them, pauses, then:
18-->'''Angel:''' It's already time for bed, so please finish in the morning.\
19'''Hisako:''' Finish ''what?!''
20* RunningGag:
21** Yuri declaring her and Hinata's partnership over for various reasons.
22** Yuri asking Shiina for her thoughts on something, only to receive a non sequitur delivered in a serious tone like she's saying something profound.
23* ShipTease: There's quite noticeable teasing with Hinata and Yuri. Considering that the events of the manga came before the anime though, things didn't seem to go anyway.
24* TrueCompanions: [[spoiler: Hinata decides to stick with Yuri to fight against God even though she just kicked Hinata off the rooftops]]. More generally, the SSS themselves.
25* {{Tsundere}}: Yuri is like this for Hinata in the manga and light novel, which is the basis for much of the ShipTease.
26* YouAreNumberSix: The manga reveals that [[spoiler:Shiina is a pseudonym; it stands for C-7 (shii-na).]]
